Several commuters rushed to the aid of a truck driver that was pinned inside his cab after his rig overturned over the weekend.
The incident occurred on Saturday evening on the eastbound lane of Interstate 64 in Caseyville.
The driver, Daniel Vick, overturned after losing control while trying to avoid a 19-year-old woman that cut in front of his rig when she tried to exit the freeway. She later admitted to texting while driving. The crash shut down the road for roughly two hours.
After he was freed from his rig, the driver was taken to a local hospital with minor injuries and was released the next day.
